From Local to Global: Growing as a Solana Builder in APAC
About this event
Building something great on Solana is the starting point. Getting seen by the right people, landing grants, and becoming a recognisable name in the ecosystem is a different skill entirely, and most APAC builders leave it to chance.
Chaerin Kim, Developer Relations at the Solana Foundation, works directly with builders across the region and knows exactly how the ecosystem looks from the inside. She sees who gets noticed and who doesn't, what separates teams that get grant support from teams that get ignored, and how the relationships that open real doors are actually built.
This session is practical and direct. Chaerin walks through where the real opportunities in the Solana ecosystem actually come from, how to engage with the community in ways that build reputation rather than just visibility, and what it takes to go from being a participant in the ecosystem to becoming a builder that ecosystem teams actively want to work with.
If you are competing in Colosseum, this is directly relevant. The teams that win are almost never the ones that showed up only for the hackathon. Understanding how to position yourself and your project within the broader Solana ecosystem is part of what gets you from submission to accelerator to funded.
What you will walk away with: a clear map of where grants, partnerships, and ecosystem support actually come from, how to build relationships with Solana Foundation and ecosystem teams before you need something from them, and a practical action plan for going from local builder to globally recognised Solana contributor.
